Zenith Model 95 Elevation Flexion Distraction Tbl

I have had a Zenith 95 for about 11 years. Hessco has recovered it once and serviced it twice. I am not gentle on it, do a fair amount of rocking (Trager)and blocking, and have put patients on it who were well over the 300# listed weight limit without it so much as groaning. I don't do as much flexion/distraction as I once did, but it sure is valuable when needed. I wish I had the pelvic lift and drops and could use slightly wider cushions. I also wish there were a way to lock the manual controls so that kids can't fiddle with them. My table has a central pillar rather than the knees for elevation and I like this better with all the kids we see. Otherwise, this has been my dream table and a real work horse at that.
